Spring Break

We were supposed to go to New York City for a few days and bring my son to a Yankees game.. but then we ended up spending all the money we were supposed to save for the vacation.. lol, the story of our lives. We figured we'd still be able to afford it, we'd even gotten all our bills caught up, but now things are starting to look a little tight again and we have too much due all at once... so oh well... maybe another time.

well we donthave a lot of money either because hubby is not working but he has an aunt and uncle who live up north (here in ontario, canada) on a lake so last week, we took a few days (i took time off of work) and went up there. it was really nice. we are hoping to do the same in the summer (we can stay with them so it really doesnt cost us much except gas to get there!)

dorannmwin, I am sorry to learn of your husband's health problems and I pray that he will get better. I hope that your family will still be able to enjoy time together during this break. You may want to consider some nearby places or rather a drive away distance from your home. I am not going to be your dampener but I'd just like to add that traveling during peak season is just as harrowing as going through the air turbulence in mid air. The long queues at check in, immigrations, customs and not to forget the expensive peak season surcharges at every attractions and hotels. I find that we can always feel happy if not better with conventional mode of transportation and attraction close by like parks, museums, convention centers, malls and even revisiting places where we dated can be very heartwarming and beautiful. Let me assure you nothing ever beats it, not even seating the first class cabin or sleeping in a 5 star hotel room. Have a nice day.

Spring break doesn't start here til Good Friday. We won't be going anywhere for fun between the fact we don't have the cash to spare and gas is on the rise again. It's teetering around $3 & we haven't even switch the reformulated gas for summer yet! Sorry I have nothing to make you jealous of.... we're lumping it too!

dorannmwin oh yes medical bills really take a huge bit out of one's spending money.I have to stay here as I am like alot of other people living on social security and SSI checks which Gold Crest takes most of for monthly rent and so so food. well its a roof over my head and three meals, such as they are, a day. so I will have to take pretend vacations reading about lovely places to go, and searching in the web for interesting ideas. Its not so bad as long as I have time for mylotting. Maybe you will be able to take a great vacation this summer and really have some fun.good luck, God bless.

I am going to go geocaching with my friends this Spring Brak, and it is going to be completely awesome. We're gonna hike, explore, all to find the geocaches hidden in the most interesting areas of the world. We'll most probably stick for our country for now though, Romania.

Hi Dorann, That's great. At least she will have a good break for herself too. My kids just had their recognition day today and tomorrow is already the start of their summer vacation here. after the holy week they have have their summer school program. we are also planning to go a pool resort for a swimming bonding with the kids. but most of the summer vacation we will just stay at home! i hope your husband will be recovering from his medical concerns.

Hi doran, it is still too hot here in my place, the weather is gloomy too, some days temp hikes to 48 degree celcious, not the right time to travel, you know from my discussions, i was with my son in south india for 65 days, from there we went on pilgrimage to places in north india. You should give top priority to health of your husband.... Sorry for late response.. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Prof
